Role of biogas slurry in soil health development
The decrease in crop output prompts an increase in the use of various chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agricultural fields. Such chemical inputs not only put human life and the environment in danger, but they also pose a serious threat to soil and agriculture. Three significant issues of using the nitrogenous chemical fertilizers are rising costs,

Energy balance of different organic biogas farming systems [PDF]
The ecological impact of biogas plants depends on their integration into a given farming system. Therefore only farm-specific and no general statements are possible. In this paper, two different concepts of biogas production for an organic cash crop farm

Climate effects of recycled fertilizers and biochar: emissions of nitrous oxide, methane and ammonia in a field experiment [PDF]
Background Nitrogen (N) fertilizers are essential for crop production. Farmyard manure and slurry traditionally constitute about half of the total N inputs into crop production in Switzerland.

Assessment of the genotoxicity of Cu and Zn in raw and anaerobically digested slurry with the Vicia faba micronucleus test [PDF]
Genotoxicity of Cu and Zn was assessed by use of the micronucleus (MN) test on Vicia faba roots. Plants were exposed to various leachates of rawand anaerobically digested pig slurry, with maximum total concentrations of 200MCu and 600MZn.

Methane emissions from fresh dairy cattle and pig slurry
Abstract During manure storage, methane (CH4) is produced by anaerobic decomposition of organic matter by methanogens. Frequent removal and further processing of manure from the barn can reduce CH4 emissions. However, little is known about how much CH4 is lost during the adaptation of methanogens to the changing environment from the gut to storage. The
